TITLE: NORTH COUNTY
Music & Lyrics by Tom Eaton, Copyright 2014
-----------------------------------------

Thirteen years ago I was a younger man than now
but that was many years ago
now i'm older still but not quite over the hill
and now there are a couple things i know
North County you will always be my home

But then I walked away sometimes it's better of that way
and sometimes you just leave your love behind
well i left her in LA and it still haunts me to this day
a self inflicted love sick worried mind
North County it's for her that i still pine

Some have passed and some are just gone
some keep keeping' on
some are lost and some are free
some are just a memory
Summertime was our sweet song
many winters have come and gone
but you'll always be my home
North County i just wanted you to know
You'll always be my home

I see that train it's comin' down
i hear it yeah i feel the sound
it's right there if i ever need to roam
to bring me back to where i once belonged
North County you will always be my home
yeah North County you will always be my home
